A CRITICAL OVERVIEW OF INTERNET OF THINGS IN EDUCATION
Abstract
As a relatively new concept, Internet of things
(IoT) seems to offer some potentials for learning and teaching. Although this
catchy term is becoming more and more popular in educational contexts, there is
still need for clearing up the minds of teachers and students with respect to
the nature of it and how it could be used for teaching and learning purposes.
In this sense, this study aims to locate IoT in instruction and to provide a
critical overview of it. It also makes a distinction between the use of IoT at
the management and instructional levels in educational contexts. Today,
educators seem to support the use of IoT in education but they mostly put
forward ideas that seem to represent the use of IoT from an administrative
perspective, leaving little space for discussions centering on direct
instructional potentials of IoT. Therefore, this study highlights those
benefits and discusses problematic issues, particularly with respect to access
to digital devices and the Internet.
